What is Premarital Screening?
What is Premarital Screening?
Marriage varies according to different cultures, but in principal, it is a formally recognised union of two people as partners in a personal relationship, which is usually intimate and sexual.
The aim of screening is to exclude the following:
- Genetic blood diseases such as sickle-cell, anaemia and thalassemia
- Infectious diseases such as hepatitis B, hepatitis C and HIV
- Undiagnosed medical conditions
Cross Street Medical provides premarital screening. Our experienced doctors are able to give sound advice and provide options to the soon-to-be married couple, with the aim of helping them plan for a healthy and sound family.
Why do we do Premarital Screening?
Premarital screening promotes awareness of each person’s medical health and the subsequent consequences to the relationship in the future by:
- Creating an understanding of genetic blood diseases such as sickle-cell, anaemia and thalassemia, which may be passed from a parent to child/children
- Limiting the spread of sexually transmitted diseases like syphilis, hepatitis B, hepatitis C and HIV
- Avoiding the social and psychological problems for families who deal with major health conditions, such as HIV/AIDS and Thalassemia Major
- Spreading awareness of the concept of a comprehensive, responsible and healthy marriage
